I din't usually watch this. I'm not a fan but it's something to watch while I'm waiting for Broadchurch
I'm going to see if I can answer any questions. This is a bit too brainy for me

MD I'm better than that, I only count mine as correct if I answer before the students.
In last weeks run of old students, the questions were a lot easier, I scored 19 on one night in one of them.

Not if you saw the show it wasn't, they were too easy for such a programme.
My personal best was in the days of Bamber Gascoigne.

Was tough going last night, Trueblood from St Peters was rapier sharp and it was hard to answer before him (I employ the same 'rules' as CMAT, if you're not in first, it can't count).

This week's losing team captain, Bristol Reynolds, is surely set to join MI6 once she graduates in Russian and Czech.
But Bristol University's The Tab, in its profile of the team, throws up some disturbing news for those who remember the late 1970s:
Fourth Year Czech & Russian student Anastasia Reynolds is Team Captain. In her “chequered past” she was once a receptionist to the drummer from The Clash –- Terry Chimes (aka Tory Crimes), who’s now a chiropractor in Essex.
